Hey guys, I just wanted to check in and let you know we are still going strong. To date, we have lost over 150 lbs - I started at 372 and have lost 78 lbs with 50 + more to go. My wife started at 243 and have lost 75 lbs - she wants to lose another 25-30 lbs. To my over 50 group, be encouraged you can do it. I thought due to my age that the weight would not come off; however, consistency, dedication, and prayer brings about amazing results. We have adopted a new healthy lifestyle of eating and exercising. i0uvmlwbpj26.jpg

    DUDE! And.....LADY! MUCH MUCH MUCH RESPECT! Yes....yelling a little bit. That is freaking awesome. We all make excuses "Oh, since I am older it is sooooo much harder" (and similar). No excuses with you two! Awesome sauce! Just results!
